stops will be made except at the points
above mentioned and in no instance can
the time given to cities where stops are
to be made be extended. The
fact that the journey is timed to meet fixed
engagements will prevent any exceptions
to this, but through the day while passing
all places of any considerable size the
train will be run slow. All reception COM
mittees have been requested to meet the
president at their respective cities instead
OF en- route. This is to enable the party to
get as much rest and quiet while travelling
as possible. At the suggestion Of the pres
ident much proposed speech making at
the places to be visited has been aban-
dOned and instead the important feature in
the programme at each place will be car
riage rides about the cities over the pre-
viously announced routes, which will
crafty his desire to see the towns and
their population and enable them to see
the president without the discomforts and
dangers attending crowded rooms and
platforms. Formal acceptances of invi-
tations from these cities will now be made
out notice having been impossible on ac-
count of uncertainty as to route and dates.
